Abstract—User Interface Test Automation for Silverlight Applications (UITASA) plays a vital role in software industry; especially User Interface Test Automation (UITA) in new technology like Silverlight is a challenging task because of its high security and low accessibility. Agent Technology is intermediate software that provides a better bridge between User Interface Test Automation and Silverlight applications. There are different software agents for each group of controls to do User Interface Test Automation. For example button control agent will take care of all buttons in User Interface Test Automation.

Index Terms—User Interface, Test Automation, Silverlight Applications and Agent based User Interface Test Automation.
